The decoration is placed between a concentric line at the rim and another one around the bottom of the bowl. Four downturned triangles filled with chevrons are almost evenly spaced. Two groups of nine and five parallel vertical lines, respectively, are painted  on opposite sides of the vessel. Two vertical lines, each with a series of oblique lines on the right side, complete the decoration.
